Mozart: Requiem in D minor, K.626 - Offertorium: Hostias (original)

Hostias et preces, tibi, Domine, laudis offerimus:
tu suscipe pro animabus illis,
quarum hodie memoriam facimus:
fac eas, Domine, de morte transire ad vitam,
quam olim Abrahae promisisti et semini eius.

Mozart: Requiem in D minor, K.626 - Offertorium: Hostias (translation)

We offer sacrifices and prayers to you, O Lord, of praise
you take care of those souls
of which we commemorate today
make them pass from death to life
which you promised to Abraham in the past and you will persecute him.
